Double Dog Day: Fletch the Great Pyrenees and Zoë the Akbash Dog

Ran across these three (two dogs and one man) in South Park, last September. I might’ve caught them on a bad day… they all seemed a trifle testy, although I did a couple of smiles out of Fletch eventually. Still, … Continue reading

Dog of the Day: Paddington the Pomeranian/Dachshund Mix Puppy

Pretty cute! The breed mix is a guess, based on head shape and ear floof, and that a similar-looking puppy pupped… er, popped up here a while back. Similarly adorable, I’d say. When this picture was taken (last September) Paddington was … Continue reading

Dog of the Day: Fergi the Terrified Australian Cattle Dog/German Shorthaired Pointer Mix

Poor Fergi. Someone was pretty mean to her at some time in the past, and she’s still scared of everybody. Dogs like that make me want to hug them and tell them that everything’s going to be all right, but … Continue reading

I’m a little low on time today, so here’s a teaser for a group of corgis that I will be posting sometime soon. Dad doesn’t seem to be entirely happy with them, I think because the one on his back … Continue reading

Double Dog Day: Boston Terrier and Labrador Retriever Mix

An interesting pair. They were staring at the store that (presumably) mom or dad was in. Fixedly. As if, if they took their eyes off of it for just a moment, mom/dad would vanish and never be heard from again.

Dog of the Day: Rue the Silver Labrador Retriever

Ran into this sweetheart outside of the GLBT History Museum in the Castro district. She’s one of those funky newfangled colors for Labrador retrievers, but she’s still the same old Lab at heart. (And thank goodness for that!)

Double Dog Day: Gordon Setter and Australian Cattle Dog/Border Collie Mix

Double Dog Day: Two French Bulldogs

These two were chilling out in front of the Crossroads Café, begging for skritches. (Someday I’ll be able to remember the difference between French bulldogs and Boston terriers. Until then, there’s Google image search.) (Sorry boys, I don’t think your affection-hunting … Continue reading
